Swaro did a "tune-up" on Steve's (mooreorless) 20-year-old 7x30 SLC, and he ended up getting half off on a new 8x30 SLCnew by trading in his 7x30s. That's more than he originally paid for them, so they appreciated in value! Even BMWs don't do that. The design of Swaro's hard eyecups doesn't seem to have changed since the SLCAlt/original EL, so I would imagine Swaro is well stocked with them. Brock</blockquote>
